simple addon: inscriptions egos suffixed instead of prefixed

#1 Post by omero »

Hello,
I created a very simple addon that alters infusions and runes names to have their egos (if any) suffixed instead of prefixed,
thus similar infusions and runes will sort close to each other in the character inventory.

warrior's -> of the grunt
duelist's -> of the nimble
wizard's -> of the gifted
psychic's -> of the thoughtful
sneak's -> of the astute
titan's -> of the robust

Cheers!

Nice! The addon system is really great for stuff like this.

A great idea, but I think the better would have been:

warrior's -> of the warrior
duelist's -> of the duelist - etc

People have already gotten used to the old descriptions and "profession" based naming is far more neutral. Your basic idea is very good and there's no need to bloat it with needless changes.

Because right now I keep imagining:

An eager merchant: "Hey, you look like you could totally use my inscription of a grunt or robust!"

A proud warrior/knight/paladin: "Excuse me?!"

Eager merchant: here, take the brochure and check out the amazing effects it will bestow on you!

I was dubious myself before releasing whether I should stick to the more traditional egos naming or not.
The ego names are just cosmetic and the properties of inscriptions and runes aren't altered at all but I see your point.

I've uploaded a new version that reverts egos name to their traditional form.
Cheers!
